Hot take: My local store started carrying instant ferment packs that worry me

They claim you can make kraut in days without weights or brine. This seems risky for beginners who might not know about mold risks. Should we talk to store managers about better labeling?

My buddy Kyle tried that method last year. He had to get three stitches in his thumb.
